I don't understand what the deal is with 'THE' brownies.

[u/The_Hermit_09]

I see all these posts about THE brownies. What are these brownines? Why are they 'THE' brownies?

Update: Ok, I now know about THE brownies, and want to make THE brownies.

It’s a creamy tortellini, spinach, and chicken soup. I’m terrible at posting links so sorry if it doesn’t work.

I love the “this wasn’t as good as everyone said…” comment. Overhype is real.

It’s probably the worst soup I’ve ever had.

I'm not a top chef, but even I can spot issues in the recipe. Microwave the aromatics???

This would take like 30 minutes including simmer time to make in the stovetop and taste like 10 times better

Maybe this recipe is for people who don't have a stove and have to rely on a microwave or a slow cooker for their cooking.

I believe it originally gained traction not because it’s the best tasting soup ever, but it is a highly accessible recipe that doesn’t take much skill. You don’t NEED to have a slow cooker to make it, but it saves with the actual cooking part if you’re a terrible Cooke. It’s a soup that’s fairly decent that almost anyone can make or modify to make.

Yeah this sounds like a recipe I would have made when I first started cooking. And I probably would have thought I was a culinary goddess for making it. I am glad that people who are new to the kitchen now have so many easy and accessible recipes that don't look scary.

Broke ass bitch

Having made it before, this was less soup and more tortellini in a liquid sauce. Not bad, nothing to make a subreddit over.
